Richard Sierra and Nancy Holt
10 min 27 sec
Analog Video
Single Channel Video
The video shows Nancy Holt in a studio wearing a pair of headphones. As she talks, the headphones allow her to hear what she is saying, but with a few seconds delay. Hearing the words she is speaking with a delay begins to effect her cognition and speech. The words surround her everywhere and are 'boomeranging' back to her as she spits them out. The video is composed of a still, close shot in color.
